Market Trends & Context

Understanding Market Temperature

A Cold market indicates weak buyer demand relative to available inventory, typically characterized by declining or flat prices, extended days on market, and elevated inventory levels relative to sales.

Key Findings

1. The neighborhood’s primary market indicator is the median sold price of $140,900, which represents the most reliable signal of realized value in recent transactions and should be prioritized over asking prices when setting offers or valuations.

2. There is a notable gap between the median listing price of $149,450 and the median sold price of $140,900, which may indicate pricing friction and seller expectations that exceed recent transaction outcomes; coupled with a down price trend, this suggests sellers may need to adjust to trade more quickly.

3. Liquidity appears slow: the median days on market of 248 points to extended marketing times and slower sales velocity, which may benefit buyers negotiating concessions or price reductions in the near term.

4. Market context is soft—market temperature is cold and price year-over-year trend is down, while interest rate pressure is elevated; rental dynamics are a relative bright spot with the median market rent of $1,600 and rent year-over-year trend up, suggesting stability for buy-to-rent considerations despite sales market weakness.
